Prior to joining the national news, Reeb was a reporter and commentator for Global Ontario CIII, where among other responsibilities he hosted "Focus Ontario".

In addition to serving as a backup anchor on "Global National", other network programs Reeb hosted for Global included "Global Sunday", and the short-lived "Ottawa Inside-Out".

Reeb got his start in broadcast journalism at age 16 at CFOK (AM), a radio station in his hometown of Westlock, Alberta. He graduated from Lethbridge College in 1988 and helps fund an annual scholarship in his name at the institution where he was named Distinguished Alumni of the Year in 2003. He is a recipient of the Alberta Centennial Medal and the Provincial Awards Celebrating Excellence.
